Question:

Seed capsules of the Shepherd’s purse are either triangular or ovoid. A cross between a plant with triangular seed capsules and a plant with ovoid seed capsules yielded F1 hybrids that all had triangular seed capsules. When these F1 hybrids were inter crossed, they produced 80 F2 plants, 72 of which had triangular seed capsules and 8 of which had ovoid seed capsules. Are these results consistent with the hypothesis that capsule shape is determined by a single gene with two alleles?
